SPARC Drives Podocyte Mitochondrial Damage and Ferroptosis in Diabetic Kidney Disease Following Klotho Deficiency

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Klotho deficiency promotes podocyte mitochondrial dysfunction and ferroptosis through activation of the PKCα/CUX1/SPARC/TGFβ‐RII axis. SPARC emerges as a key mediator linking Klotho loss to podocyte injury in DKD and other kidney injury models, suggesting broader implications for CKD progression.

Mineralocorticoid receptor activation contributes to intestinal fibrosis through neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin in preclinical models

Nature Communications
Intestinal fibrosis is a common complication in inflammatory bowel diseases with no specific therapy. Because mineralocorticoid receptor antagonism prevented inflammation and fibrosis in extra-intestinal organs, we aimed to evaluate mineralocorticoid ...

Effects of Finerenone on Cardiovascular and Chronic Kidney Diseases: A New Weapon against Cardiorenal Morbidity and Mortality—A Comprehensive Review

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2023
Patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) show high rates of cardiorenal outcomes. In addition, the progression towards renal failure and cardiovascular events rises as CKD worsens.

Drug Repurposing for Treating NCOR‐Related Intellectual Disability

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An autism‐associated NCOR1 heterozygous mutation upregulates NRGs and activates NRG backward signaling in hypothalamic GABAergic neurons in mouse models, leading to Gabra2 downregulation and cognitive deficits, which can be therapeutically targeted by repurposing FDA‐approved drugs.

Hypertension in obesity: A focus on individualized pharmacotherapy and the role of body composition, on behalf of the European Society of Hypertension Working Group on Diabetes and Metabolic Risk Factors and Working Group on Lifestyle, Cardiovascular Pharmacotherapy and Adherence

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Hypertension in obesity represents a major global health challenge, closely linked to the global epidemics of obesity, type 2 diabetes and metabolic dysfunction. Excess adiposity contributes to elevated blood pressure through multiple, interrelated mechanisms, including activation of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system, sympathetic nervous system ...

Mineralocorticoid Receptor Signaling Contributes to Normal Muscle Repair After Acute Injury

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
Acute skeletal muscle injury is followed by a temporal response of immune cells, fibroblasts, and muscle progenitor cells within the muscle microenvironment to restore function.

Cytoskeleton–Membrane Uncoupling in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: Implications for Newborn Screening and Early Protection

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The cytoskeleton of striated muscle integrates force transmission, mechanotransduction, and sarcolemmal stability through coordinated networks of sarcomeres, costameres, and intermediate filaments. Together, these systems establish mechanical continuity between the contractile apparatus, the sarcolemma, and the extracellular matrix.

Regulation of Klotho Production by Mineralocorticoid Receptor Signaling in Renal Cell Lines

Biomolecules
Through the mineralocorticoid receptor, aldosterone controls extracellular volume and arterial blood pressure by stimulating Na+ absorption and K+ secretion in epithelial cells of the kidney, colon, and several glands.

UMOD Genotype and Clinical Outcomes in Heart Failure Patients Treated with Loop Diuretics: A UK Biobank Pharmacogenetic Cohort Study

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Uromodulin (UMOD) regulates tubular sodium handling and modulates NKCC2, the molecular target of loop diuretics (LD). Although UMOD variants have been associated with blood pressure and hypertension, their pharmacogenetic relevance in heart failure (HF) remains unknown.

Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonist for Renal Protection

Renal Failure, 2012
The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays an important role in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular and renal diseases. In chronic kidney disease (CKD), blockade of RAS by angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) has been shown to reduce proteinuria and retard the progression of renal function deterioration ...
